This is amazing! Simple but very effective. For those wondering, the map in the background is a greeting card that I lined with wrapping paper and I am putting my pages in it. The pages will be accordion folded within the card and once I have enough pages, I will be attaching a closure to it so the pages stay inside.

Anything in green and silver. Preferred theme is Slytherin but Steampunk, Sucker Punch, The Bannen Way, Power Rangers, Fatal Frame, Pokemon, Epic Mickey are all welcome in the green and silver color scheme.

My name is Rachel and I live in Ohio! I have 2 lovely dogs and I would love anything Slytherin or if you don't want to do Harry Potter specifically, please incorporate green and/or silver in your page regardless of the subject matter. Some other awesome subjects to do with green and silver are steampunk, anime, video games, and music.

Okay so I wanted to make a visual journal but I wanted something Slytherin themed. It's mostly completed but the journey is only beginning because as I add pages, I will probably add more to the cover as well. I also might add a green ribbon with a charm for a bookmark as well.

I designed all of the images used on the front, back, and inside covers.^---- This is what I started with.

^------- The image I used for the base front cover. The Slytherin crest made to look like crinkled paper. I used Photoshop CS5.

A better picture.

I decided to add some silver foil binding. It's origami paper.

The inside covers. I made this in Photoshop CS5 as well.

Then I laminated the covers using packing tape.

If someone wants an in depth tutorial, I'd be more than happy to post one as the steps are a bit more intricate than this but it's still relatively easy to do.
